She doespioneering research in a critical area and brings in big bucks to support the research, includingseveral six-figure NSF grants and 60% release time. She publishes 5-10 papers each year in themost prestigious journals in her field and is a shoo-in for the National Academy. She is adedicated and stimulating instructor and wins teaching awards at her university and nationally.She does more than her fair share of the tedious but vital service chores that no one wants to doand does them excellently. She is mostly imaginary.”3 In 1987 Feldman examined 42 studies andconcluded that “the likelihood that research productivity actually benefits teaching is

that theonline format has advantages over the in-person format (Question 4). This maybe explainedbased on the fact that the vast majority of students had other online course(s) in the past. Inother words, they may have developed a comfort level for such modality especially if they havework or other time commitments on their daily schedules. Still the students did not think thatonline offered more advantages than in-person (Question 5). This might indicate students’preference to in-person format. When asked if they would consider taking more online coursesin the future, even not in the shadow of a pandemic, most students concurred that they would(Question 6).One of the most important or telling questions is Question 7. In this question, the

encourage students to spend more time assessing how well they understand the material (10).The conventional single-answer MC question can mask a student’s knowledge state from boththemselves and the educator (11). These assessments provide binary or dichotomous feedback:students get the right answer and full credit or the wrong answer and no credit. Students with lowknowledge states who randomly guess on a four-answer-choice question have an expected scoreequal to 25% of the total points. If the students can eliminate one or two answer choice(s), theirexpected score moves towards 50% of the total points. The downside for guessing is earningzero point while the upside is getting full credit. The mutually exclusive and collectivelyexhaustive nature
researchexperience can provide quick and valuable information for faculty mentors. Faculty mentors canuse this feedback to address with participants issues that may be influencing their learning ortheir thinking about future educational or career goals, and make adjustments to improve thelearning environment before the end of the experience.References 1.

If categories occur simultaneously, thecodes are sorted in ascending order to make the data organized. We implemented an overlappingprocedure approach presented in [18] to incorporate multiple codes. We selected a data thresholdsuch that short time intervals (< ~3 s) were ignored.
